Planting . Pimsnto Grove.

The planters of Jamaica long ago found
out that the birds can make much better
pimento or allspice groves than a be
made by man. As Q consequence the
work Of planting, or more properly Of
sowing, Is left entirely TO the birds, mans
share Of the labor being confined simply
to chopping over the piece Of woodland
which 1t is proposed 10 convert into .
spice grove.
After the first rains following the clear
ing a number Of young pimento plants
make their appearance. The birds, fit
ting about among the fallen timber all
through the fruit season, drop the seeds
everywhere, under conditions which in
sure their immediate fertilization, and
the partial shade afforded by the fallen
timber is just what b required to foster
the young plszits' growth. By the time
the timber is rotten the planter has his
pimento grove well developed, and re-
curing only 10 be thinned out 10 render

New Corners from the Country.

There was an odd incident at one of the
seashore places n day last week. A
couple Of ladies, who do not live in Bos-
ton, and whose unpretentious way of life
had perhaps led them to fear that they
might be looked down upon by Boston
people, had taken board at a hotel much
~patronized by Bostonians Of an excellent
sort. Walking about the corridor of the
house on the first evening after their ar
rival, and observing with an interest nat
ural in new corners the people about them,
they happened to observe two ladies stand
ing n the corridor not far away. II struck
the younger Of the two new corners, who
is a little short sighted, that these two
ladies whom she saw in the corridor were
quite shabby in appearance. She turned
to her companion and whispered:
"Well, ! guess we can hold up our
heads with this sort Of people"
The elder seized her handkerchief in a
vain attempt to smother a hearty laugh.
They had been looking at their own re-

A Little Chap's Advice,

A little friend Of mine, while visiting
out Of town for q few days, enjoyea inn.
mensely the strangeness Of his rural sur
rounding. He had not been out Of the
city since he was old enough to take cog
nizance Of country ways and character
istics, and his comments on what he saw
occasioned much amusement to his pa
rents and the family where he was visit-
ing. The other day, o. he sat enjoying q
piece Of cake under the shade Of the
trees, the hens gathered about him to
catch the crumbs that fell from his club
By hands, and among them wa a Brahma
chicken sparsely provided, as these chick
ems frequently are, with feathers. The
little fellow gszed down with . reproach-
III eye At the chicken . lily provided
WITH feathery garb, and his protest finally

The pimsui,y of Matching Teeth.

matching teeth Is one of the most
tiresome and difficult tasks incident TO
dentistry. As used in the profession, the
term means the selection of artificial teeth
that will correspond in shape and color
with those that nature has provided. To
match in color Is the serious work. The
slightest variation in teeth not noticeable
before the plate has been made becomes
q serious fault as soon as the made tooth
appears at the side of the natural one.
The shape is less trying on the patience,
though a great measure of the success
depends upon care in this detail. II more
than N false tooth is to be inserted, care
must be taken that they be not perfectly
uniform in size and shape. Perfect regu-
larity even in natural teeth often causes
suspicion among gossipy observers.-Al-
bany Express.

Character Tested BY . Musical Note.

Now il is a fact, well known and be-
You'd dispute. that every animate or in
animate structure responds TO some chord
o. note of music, called, / believe, the
dominant. We have all felt some build
ing vibrate in unison with the pulsation
Of some note Of a musical instrument;
We have felt ''creepy" shivers run through
N rs some musical chord is sounded. II
b well known that animals are strangely
affected by certain harmonies.
Some day, when civilization has ad-
nnced, l believe that these evidences Of
psychological structure will be better un-
derssood. II will be recognized that vice
and virtue are in accord with different
harmonies, and yield to the power Of diff.
ferent dominants; and, when once the
power Of classification is made, and the
disclosures of the dominant understood,
then the extent and influence of the DOM
inant will be a psychological test to de-
1ne the character and ruling passions OF
mems nature, and to decide the fitness Of
mm for the various pursuits Of life, and
even for life itself.-Arthur Dudley Vim

ssNo, ! am not going to the country

aiginal friend Of mine, the other day, in
Nv York, in response to the stereotyped
question which greets everybody at this
ssason Of the year. II shall spend Q
month in the mountains in the autumn
When the foliage begins TO turn, but the
sumner I shall spend in my roof garden"
Iuppose / stared at him blankly, for he
hnghed, and added: Eyes, my roof gar
den; come up and see it. All the advan-
tages Of the country, no mosquitoes, no
malaria, cool air, large airy bedrooms,
house with all modern improvements,
md al that sort of thing. Come up and
dina with me and I will show you" /.
We strolled up the avenue and entered
hi house, ON Murray hill. After a CAPT.
tal dinner my friend smiled az he led the
way TO the elevator.
I'VE viii have coffee and cigars in the
garden"
When I had ascended the stairway and
stepped through the scuttle I could hardly
believe that / was on the top of one Of the
commonplace brown stone houses of FASH
icuable New York. The fat roof had
been covered with q narrow Slated floor
ing. Potted plants and shrubs in boxes
delighted the eye, relieved the sharp an
gies Of the caves, and hid the chimneys.
A large marquee, such q we see on
country lawns, protected us from the
sun, and rugs, cane easy chairs, ham,
mocks, two or three small bamboo
tables, and q multitude Of Chinese Ian
terms made the roof seem u bit of fairy
land.
"What do you think of it3" he said
Qyly, as we seated ourselves, and his
wife inside the coffee in one of those
French balance coffee pots, which make
the best coffee in the world. II was
charming, and ] told him 80.

With its many colored lights on the roof
garden, from which ! got my idea, and
beyond it are the twinkling lights of Jer-
sew City and Hoboken. ! think it is
rather jolly myself" he concluded, mod
estly.
Ii was awful jolly. and ! wonder that
more people do not follow my friends
example. During the evening half a
dozen people dropped in and were shown
up to the roof. Ices and a bottle or two
Il wine were served. and when I strolled
down the hot city street again I could
hardly realize that there was such a jolly
little park high up in the air, where all
the comforts Of the city and country
could be combined into such a unique and
delightful whole.-New York Times.

A Miniature Water Spout.

A whirlwind or small cyclone about
fifteen feet wide passed over a pond at
Greenville, Ala, forcing the water up
for about two or two and one-half feet its
entire width, and then twisting it into a
pillar about a foot in diameter. This
stem was perpendicular for about six
feet, when it gradually widened until a
height of about sixty or seventy feet was
attained. The water then fell in a spray.
Those who witnessed it say that the
whirlwind formed a huge goblet of water,
and it was n of the prettiest sights they
ever witnessed.-Chicago News.

The Gaps Closing In the National and
Northwestern, While st. Louis has sinch
In the American.
In the National league last week
the fortunate clubs were Chicago,
Philadelphia and Pittsburg; each Of
which improved their relative posit.
Ion in the race though still keeping
the same numbers. Detroit Lost three
games out Of five and though still
leading is not as secure In the position
as for the last three weeks. The games
won were from Washington one Of
the tail enders, to whom she also drop
ped one and one each to Boston and
Chicago, the two last were serious de-
feats as the winning clubs are strong
rivals for first place. Chicago, as was
expected, lost the series to the Phillies,
but took one from them, and one each
from New York and Detroit, the two
latter helping amazingly. Boston
opened the week by winnings game
from Detroit, but fell down for them
straight with Pittsburg. and wound
up by pounding the New Yorks for
one. Philadelphia whose wond erful
squirt was noticed in last weeks re-
view kept up her pace and is to-day
neare than ever posaible winner. In
she is but ninety-two
points behind Detroit and only twen-
ty-five points intervene between her
and third place. She took four out Of
five games last week, two Of them be-
ing from Chicago. The Phillies are
the enigma Of the league; A good
Judge can hardly look upon them rs
winners, and yet he is an almighty
poor Judge who would affirm that they
may not be. They are playing q
steady up bill game with close scores
whenever they lose, and will finish
close to the top anyhow. Washington
tell of q little, Pittsburg improved
and Indianapolis kept about even.
The record up to August l4th is - fol-
oWs.
